what do you guys think? My QBs are Big Ben and Carson Palmer
I have an opportunity to get Russel Wilson for Aaron Jones and Big Ben.

The guy I would be trading with has Montgomery and he is concerned that Jones may end up being the starter. If you saw Jones the past two weeks you can understand that concern.

I have M Gordon, Hyde, Tevin Coleman and Derrick Henry as my other RBs. My only hesitation is that Jones looks like he could end up being a stud BUT my current QBs are not producing for me.
Yes

You are fine at RB
Much like the Pats  
UConn4523 : 10/9/2017 10:08 pm : link
I'll never buy into a GB running back. Monty is unique since he's used as a pass catcher so much, but otherwise, GB can't get a consistent back to save its life. Take the upgrade at QB.
I would absolutely do that for the reasons mentioned above

I have a trade question too.

In a 0.5 PPR league, got offered DeVante Adams for Tevin Coleman. Here is my roster.

QB: Deshaun Watson
RB: Ezekiel Elliot
RB: Christian McCaffrey
WR: AJ Green
WR: Amari Cooper
TE: Evan Engram
Flex: Tevin Coleman
K: Harrison Butker
Def: Stream

BN: Jameis Wiston
BN: Phil Rivers
BN: Rob Kelley
BN: Sterling Shepard
BN: Willie Snead
BN: Martavis Bryant
I wouldn't do that trade

Wilson is too inconsistent and isn't much of an upgrade to Ben to give up a potential starting RB like Jones
I would not make that trade  
GmeninPSL : 10/10/2017 12:48 am : link
That's total overreaction off a 5 Interception game from Ben. Wilson has had and will have many duds, while Ben still has 4 TD games in him with that offense.
wow conflicting reports here

Wilson is an upgrade  
UConn4523 : 10/10/2017 7:08 am : link
it's just how much of an upgrade. You always want as much as you can in a trade but when QBs are involved you are including a player you can't play (since it would be a 2nd QB) plus someone else to get the upgrade.

Seatle has a fairly decent schedule and with their RB woes Wilson will be passing. I think you see more duds from Ben than from Wilson, but again, what are you willing to part with for that. You MAY be giving up a playable RB for a couple weeks, but if he isn't really usable when Monty comes back, then you win that trade.

It isn't a slam dunk, but theirs enough upside to consider it.

Kind of a rough week for that deal with Elliot on the bye. Surprised to see Cooper starting. He's been horrible. Guess your main hope is for Snead to come back, but you are planning to go McCaffery and Kelley? Kelley has the Niners, but he's been dinged and has been pretty bad.

With Snead coming back and Marshall and Beckham gone, you might actually be set up as well at WR as RB going forward and the RBs have generally been the better flex play. Adams has been pretty good, but Coleman already had his bye.

Not much help, I know. Guess I just like to hear myself talk.

I wouldn't do that deal. YOu are too thin at RB already, and when Shepard comes back he will probably get more volume, and Martavis Bryant's talent will begin to show in the box score sooner rather than later. I'm sure you would love to get Adams, and so would most of us, but not considering where you are at roster wise. Coleman is pretty valuable and if Freeman goes down he is the kind of player who can elevate your team to championship level.
I love Coleman  
UConn4523 : 10/10/2017 3:26 pm : link
and Adams is going to have those terrible weeks from time to time. I stay pat and keep Coleman who's a weekly FLEX and potentially a top back if Freeman gets banged up.
